To ? this end the association makes certain H proposals relative to the following r conditions:, unemployment, prohibi-ie tion, crime, and education. ^ ' |a In discussing Negro education m'v South Carolina they asserted that of . no less vital concern to the Negro in .. South Carolina in the matter of the i ^ education of our sons and daughters, j Vast sums are spent yearly from the ^ public founds forfhe purpose of edu- j eating the youth of South Carolina. P In experjding these. funds we often 1 hear the statement that the state* county or city spent so much per capita for the education of its white * children and usually about one sixth j that sum for the education of Negro j'1 children. We definitely go on record | as not endorsing such action should just be eduction and not white education and black education. We make the appeal to the state,- to the couji- ; ties, and to the cities on this 24th dav c <.u ui'iuyer in mt* year 01 our IjOI'U ' one thousand nine hundred and thirty 1 ohe to educate children rather than s Negroes aad white folk.

Arum Southern States by thu federal Board for Vocaitional Eduation. . According to these reports vocation 1 agriculture teachers in South "luinia,. oeorgia, Arkansas, Louisi.na, and several other States are rganizing part-time classes not only nr the slack period'of the summer? uincipally July and August?but also luring the winter months. These lasses are operated in connection vitli the regular public school system - The p lair ""followed by South' Caroina and several other State is to or;anize during-the-slack~faTm seasoiis art-time classes for groups of farm oys who have dropped out of school re behind in their studies, and who an not attend regular all-day clases. . Ordinarily no special teacher s required lor such classes since the egular vocational agriculture teachi simply arranges his schedule so ,s to give at least 90 minutes each lay . for a period? of six to twelve greeks to the part-time class. In adlition to unit courses in agriculture he instructor, teaches such subjects ,s English, farm arithmetic, and ivies. This plan is varied to some xtenc in some State in that agriuitural instruction is given by the egular vocational agriculture teachr, all subjects outside the agriculural field being naught in the reuiar classes of the school. Part:me schools are held either at some eriod during the day or at night. Ilall'-day part-time schools are caried on in Louisiana. Under the ounty unit system in operation in hat State, alsp a teacher from one onunumty is at liberty to1 organize lasses in another community. This >lan ma^x'-aijse of the vocational agri uluiie "instructor's time (luring the uminer moiifhs *Tb adv^ntpgq, and [lakes it possible to reach a larger ler .ventage of farm boys than heore. incidontal^i?t4u-?setrool board s satisfied to pay the teacher on a welve months' basis when he is tanibly employed during the summer lonths. , . ' ? isoiuc Suite* even go L? the extent f making a survey of possible partime students and send teachers to onfer With them and persuade them ? the advantage of attending elases. This has the added advantage hat it gives the teacher a closer inight iiito the conditions in the home arms ol' prospective pupils and give im an opportunity to gain the conidencv of parents. Not infrequently, also, teachers re able through such contacts to iiake arrangements with parents or /ith landlords, when a* farm .is rened, whereby a supervised practice irogram, outlined in connection with , part-time course, will .enable NV :ro lariyi boys to make a profit.

An Amcrij can Negro "believes that Liberia will :_be hopeless* under the present rul ing cla^s and that nothing can be done for the country until these rulers are dislodged and the enslaved ^Africans have been trained to take i the places of their oppressors.

On that day,-178 v-earx-trgor George Washington began the first major assignment in the interest of his people. ' On that day in the Year 1753.

And long before he could face the hostile Fronelf corn tnander Washington had first to get through A wilderness teeming with doubtful Indians in the dead of''the winter.
